I am currently defoliating my plant gradually. But...

JKT48started grow question 6 years ago

I am currently defoliating my plant gradually. But I worry that I am not doing enough/too much. Could the grand masters here help me by taking a look at my latest entry (Week 13) and see if I'm doing this right? Do I need to further defoliate? Or is this enough?

The top and the bottom are perfectly defoliate. Now concerning the middle it is hard to tell , the pictures doesn't really shows if some leaves are blocking light , however I can spot some leaves that can be remove. Just try to have a maximum light exposure to every bud sites , you can still pluck a leaf or 2 but carefully , just for optimisation.

What is an organic way of rapidly developing roots of seedling? Also, what is the difference in nutrient schedule for autos versus photos using GH Hydroponics Flora Trio? Is the Lucas formula going to work for autos?

Hey guys, I’ve seen some posts where the plant is of an auto flower type, where the growers have topped it. I’ve also heard from many people that if I top my autoflower it will cause stress and flower? Any help clarifying this? 🙈

Anyone have any insight on defoiling fan leaves/leaves during bloom? Is it recommended at a certain week or should I avoid altogether? Much thanks!

Hey, I was wondering about conformation and how I should approach these potential males. Should I pull them now? It has been about 10 days, since hairs appeared on the other 2. Probably going in to flower by the end of the week. Should I leave the males until then?

I started a flush about 2-3 weeks back, because I thought it was close to harvest. Turns out she's taking longer than I anticipated. Should I restart nutrients, or keep it clean until harvest?

How wet should my soil be at this stage? The seedlings are just beginning to crack through the top, but this is mostly because I didn't cover them up too much when I changed them from the Peat Pellets to the solo cup. Soil is Pro-Mix HP. And what PH should my water be at?
